Friends Have Benefits

by Shawn Marie on May 19th, 2008

Mark your calendars for Friday, June 13, from 6:30 - 8:30 pm for the Denver Public Library’s Friends Foundation Used Book Sale Preview Party!

Friends Members will enjoy light refreshments, wine, music and friends, all outside under the tents north of the Central Library. If you are not currently a ‘Friend’ of the Denver Public Library, this is a great opportunity for you to join the Friends Foundation and show your support for our great Library.

The main sale, which happens June 14th and 15th, features more than 50,000 items, beginning at just 50 cents for paperbacks. It is an event that is not to be missed and all the proceeds go toward sustaining the Denver Public Library.
